Crazy horrible bitch quote of the day:"I wish to reiterate that I am profoundly sorry for my actions and wish to resolve this matter to everyone's satisfaction as soon as possible."

She's not sorry she did it...

she's sorry she got caught...

Lady - i'm profoundly sorry - but i hope you get hit by a bus... and dragged 7 miles... alive.... while the friction of the road surface slowly converts you to a long red streak. That thought, of course, is really 'just a split second of misjudgement on my part'... so please dont mind me.

I think every parent probably wants to spoil their daughter... but using a little girl's obsession with things frilly and pink as a tool of indoctrination? I guess I shouldnt be surprised...Then again we have Disney taking the ball and running with it - somehow baking up a gender norm melange that only our Capitalist Overlord Mouse could pull out of it's ass.

One of the disadvantages to having a father that gets up at 6am so he can move things around in your garage...leaving the garage door up at 6am is an invitation to forest critters.Of course, this is promptly followed by:'Wake up! There's a snake in the garage!'

Greek economy in shambles..."Economic activity seems to be declining at an accelerated pace due to high uncertainty and the gradual implementation of austerity measures,"

Americans not paying their debts..."The amount of bad home equity loan business during the boom is incalculable and in retrospect inexplicable, housing experts say. Most of the debt is still on the books of the lenders, which include Bank of America, Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase."

There you are, at the edge of the Klingon neutral zone. Just inside is the Kobayashi Maru, a Class III neutronic fuel carrier with 81 crew and 300 passengers. The ship has struck a gravitic mine and it's systems, including life support, are failing. When you decide to attempt the rescue - 3 Klingon D7 battle cruisers begin to emerge - and no matter what you do more and more show up to the point that you are defeated.

Sometimes the game is rigged.

Every day has gotten harder for her. No matter what I do - no matter how I approach this - her parents will not accept the situation and the pressure steadily mounts. I think they expected it to die on its own - that they wouldn't have to step in and put a stop to it... but I kept leaping the hurdles and seemed to be building a real plan for going forward.

Now her family fights. A family that never fought before.

Now her father yells. A man who never yells.

They are not going to let this happen.

There's no way to win in this scenario.

I can't do this to her - no matter how much I want it or how good I think it can be.
